of people this will be romney's first one-on- one type debate. any clue on his approach to make him perhaps a little looser, but within that strict box of remaining presidential? a hard line to walk, perhaps. >> reporter: yeah, really is. there are a lot of people that are weighing in. and you can imagine that governor romney is getting all kinds of advice from all sides. apparently, his wife is the biggest factor in his life. and in his debate preparation. in an interview i just heard that his first thing, when he gets off stage, he takes his piece of paper and writes on there, dad, remembering his dad, who also ran for president. and the second thing he does, is find his wife in the audience, and have eye contact. they did it 20 times in the republican primary. and i saw it personally six times. he looks for affirmation. so i think that's a big factor for him, feeling comfortable. how he -- how aggressive he is going after the president on specific policies, i think will determine, you know, how this debate goes. >> we will all be watching. bre

mitt romney says you're not counting all the people. it's closer to 11%. that debate will continue. friday was a good day for the president. >> back to the debate, were you surprised at the president's showing? >> yes. i was really stunned at the lack of energy and that romney came out so strong and it did seem like the president was trying to play defense and not make any mistakes because he was up at least in this race pretty handily in the swing states. not mentioning the 47% in that video, that was stunning. >> is it too late and later debates to come back with that now? you know, i liken it to a boxer almost. go back to your corner, you figure out what you didn't do right perhaps. but at that point is it too late? has america forgotten about the 47%? >> no, i don't think so. i think he can do that. not as effectively, because the first debate is usually the more watched debate. president george w. bush had a poor performance against john kerry and came back strong. last night the president was mocking his own performance. you have to accept you didn't do well, and come back and

most people think that romney won the debate. >> i will not reduce the share paid by high-income individuals. i know that you and your running mate keep saying that and i know it's popular thing to say with a lot of people but it is just not the case. i got five boys. i'm used to people saying something that is not always true but just keep on repeating it and ultimately hoping i will believe t that is not the case. i will not reduce the attacks paidby high-income americans. number three, i will not under any circumstances raise taxes on middle income families. >> four years ago when i stood on this stage, i said that i would cut taxes for middle class families. and that is exactly what i did. we cut taxes for middle class families by about $3600. the rope is because i believe that we do best when the middle class is doing well. and by giving them those tax cuts, they had a little more money in their pocket. so maybe they can buy a new car. they are certainly in a better position to weather the extraordinary recession we went through. they can buy a compute fore their kid going off to colleg
